How to see parameters previously used in a config.

Hi all,

I want to know if it is possible to see the values used in a configuration of the linuxcnc. I want to know the parameters pulses per revolution and max velocity that I used in a configuration, to use these parameters on my drivers, but i coulndt do it.

Any help on this guys?

Thanks!

Hi

Look at your .ini file in /home/your-user-name/linuxcnc/configs/config-name/config-name.ini

For each axis towards the bottom of the file, you will have

MAX_VELOCITY =
SCALE =

MAX_VELOCITY is units / sec
SCALE is pulses / unit

If you want to see the figures as you entered them into stepconf, then choose 'Open existing configuration' and choose the config-name.
Just don't finish or save, just quit from it when done.

regards

Thank you man! This help me to see the velicty and pulse in each axis, but when I try to 'open existing configuration', I can not see any file to open on the folder that my configurations are. So I cannot see the configuration per pin and see exactly what I put in the last configuration...

Any idea of why I cannot see the configuration files?

Thanks again!

Open the file manager and look through your home folder.

If you used stepconf for the config, the .stepconf file will be somewhere in there, probably in the configs folder or in with the actual config itself

If necessary copy it to wherever stepconf is looking when you try to open it

regards

I was looking at the wrong place. Sorry for the incovinience, thanks for the help!
